Esaret

Cenk Torun's portrayal of his character Orhun is Oscar winning; equally so is Mahassine Merabet's portrayal of Hira.

Hilal Anay as Meryem and Ali Yagiz Durmus as Kenan also give outstanding performances.

From the opening scene of the first episode to the 100th episode (so far), you will be captivated by the multiple storylines, that weave and develop through the series, and the emotional rollercoaster.

There is intrigue, secrets and webs of lies that slowly unfold and come to light, innocence, pure hearts, strength to stand tall and never to lose faith or hope, remorse and regret when the truth that is sought is revealed, and love.

Friendships and the surprisingly turn of events and emotions, enthralls you into the series.

Just when you wish something will happen or wonder why something hasn't happened or want characters to meet, it happens. The writers have done wonderful storylines. The entire crew and production team are to be congratulated on the setting, the music and the production of this fantastic series.

Never having watched a Turkish series before I am so glad to have started with Esaret!!

It is full of thrilling action and suspense and a lot of tender moments.

The cast is so good (you love the charater's you should love and dislike the charater's you're supposed to, that in my book is great acting) and the story keeps moving along quite well.

Just reached episode 95 I have a long way to go and can't wait!!

It did want me to learn Turkish (like one reviewer wrote too) because my only issue is with the slow translation from Turkish to English captions.

I feel sometimes I am missing something important to the story, but that won't stop me from watching.

Also, the music is fantastic especially the opening melody.

Love love the Esaret series.!!!!!!!!

It's not easy to tell as story of women slavery and human trafficking and hard to believe this still happens in our modern world, but it does and it is absolutely horrific.

My heart goes out to those who have this or worse as their reality and may they find an escapement for them. The story does make a parallelism that we are all slaves to something in our lives or allow our lives to enslave us as well. I have found this a very interesting story and the characters do to great job in portraying their roles such acting is very difficult to do but when done right it looks so realistic. Great actors.

Cenk and Mahassine are wonderful couple. Definitely Cenk's oscar winning acting is tremendous.

People only talk about its women violence, too much harsh etc. Yes, agreed. It does, it portray a wonderful change over of Man who was raised without emotions nd cruel manner by his Ice cold Mother Afife Demihran.

Unless people watches the story episodes completely, its difficult to make them understand. U guys prefer Man always chasing girl, say love u, sleep nd end????

We are in 2023's - Its just series. Let's tke it easy. Dont gve negative comments, if u guys dont understand the plot.

Hira changes the BEAST to a Lovely Handsome Man who will make him feel 'LOVE' with her Beauty, Gesture, Attitude, Honesty, Character and will get afraid to loose nd protects until the last episode.

Check out the change over of Orhun Demihran character from Epsiode 1 to 100. U guys will fall in love.

Great Acting by Lead Actors Cenk and Mahassein. Both has a sensational chemistry. It drives me crazy watching their romantic scenes. If this sjhow was aired in Hollywood, am damn sure, Cenk will take an Oscar Award. What brilliant actor with exceptional emotional, equally compensated by Mahassein Merabat. I LOVE TO WATH THIS SERIES ONLY FOR LEAD ACTOR CENK AND MAHA.

The story had taken its hardship, eventually moving to beautiful Love story. The never give up strong love from Orhun character played by Cenk. I love this couple so much, i wish them to take a new project with other Channel with different story, definitely both as leading couple. I swear they will take millions of audience attention bcz they already been loved.

Am crazily in love with Cenk with his charismatic acting.
